here's a crack at an awesome song that is fun to play when
girls give you trouble.

intro

bass plays this, and i think one guitar does too...

G-E-C-D (2x's)

another guitar plays a lead riff that goes something like this...
   G            E            C           D    (other guitar and bass)
e|---------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------2-3-2-------4-5-4-| 2 x's
A|-------2-3-2--------2-0-2--3-3-3-------5-5-5-------|
E|-3-3-3--------0-0-0--------------------------------|

why they do what they do
                        D
why they say what they say

play the intro riff, and end on a "G" chord, and that's it.

note: the lead riff is probably wrong, and the tuning on the vinyl album
 was a little below regular tuning, but it wasn't fully Eb tuning.  if
you don't know what i mean, don't worry about it.  this song is awesome.
